About this book

It began with a hookup. It ended with everything on the line.

Riley
As a single guy in professional hockey, my life has been about what you’d expect: hockey and girls, emphasis on the girls. And Logan, of course. He’s my best friend, my teammate, and the person who knows me better than anyone.

When a night on the road ends with us in bed, I don’t know how to explain it. I told myself it was a one-time thing, but it happened again. And again. Now I want more.

If I admit I’m falling for Logan, what does that mean? Everything changes: my identity, my public image, my entire life. But pretending it’s nothing gets harder with every kiss, every touch.

Logan
Riley’s younger and straight. Off-limits. At least that’s what I told myself when the feelings crept in.

Now we’re sleeping together, and I want this more than I should. Not just his body, but his heart, his trust, and his future.

But Riley’s confused, and I don’t want to push him. If he chooses me, it has to be real. If not, I’ll lose the man I love, my best friend, and maybe the only chance I’ll have at forever.

Overtime Goal is the fourth standalone in the bestselling Buffalo Warriors Hockey series. Expect a bi-awakening, best friends to lovers, an age gap, and a hilarious found family of nosy teammates. You’ll also find explosive first times, high heat with dirty talk, medium angst, and a hard-earned HEA that will have you cheering from the stands.
